The Cleveland Browns struggled against the Tennessee Titans and the PFF grades reflected that well.
Linebacker Devin Bush had an overall PFF grade of 90.3, leading all Cleveland Browns defensive players. Combined with his 91.8 PFF coverage grade with interceptions, this was one of his best games of the 2025 season. Joining him is linebacker Carson Schwesinger, who posted an impressive overall grade of 81.6 this time around. Despite only completing one sack, star defensive end Myles Garrett also performed well, with an overall grade of 83.7.

Unfortunately for the Browns defense, they were the only three players to receive a PFF grade of 80.0 or higher. The team still showed a lot of promise and potential against the Titans, but they need to do better on the field and in PFF grades if they want to have a chance against the Chicago Bears. Hopefully they can turn some of those results into an even better performance when they head to Chicago this Sunday.
Now, let’s take a look at the Browns’ top defensive players following their shocking loss to the Tennessee Titans:
